Quotes 

• Sister Monica Joan : I cannot discern whether you are dusting or at prayer. Whichever should be the case... I deduce you are not succeeding.

  Sister Frances : [Shakes her head]  I'll get better at it.

  Sister Monica Joan : From experience, I would advise that you will not. But you will become more patient and therein know true grace.

• Cyril Robinson : [Cyril and Sister Monica Joan enter a room with several women including Nurses Anderson and Franklin in various stages of dress]  Good evening, ladies.

  [Nurses Franklin and Anderson hide] 

  Sister Monica Joan : None of them were déshabillée... when I was summoned by the bell.

  Nurse Lucille Anderson : [to Cyril]  What in the good Lord's name are you doing coming around here without notice?
